Who doesn’t love John Stamos raise your hand? I will fight you right here and now! Ha Ha Ha. John is awesome in person and extremely warm to all in his presence. I wish I could bring you all to his house and introduce you but I think he would be upset with me so I won’t. Just take my word on it and look at his smile then.

Before anyone starts talking smack about “Girl power” or whatever have you, realize we are all entitled to an opinion. It might be fine, acceptable, proud, whatever, for her but it grosses me out. Don’t know why but it does and that’s my opinion. Just like some people think eating cow tongue is gross.

I’m not making fun of her, bullying her….Just pointing it out since she was showing it off.

Thought I might share with you all as I nibble on the cow tongue. MMMMMmmmmm. Basque Food.

A pilot program that pays some Los Angeles County homeowners to build a second dwelling on their property to house homeless people was approved with a 4-0 vote Tuesday by the Board of Supervisors.

Homeowners in unincorporated communities who qualify can receive up to $75,000 to build a second dwelling in areas zoned for such structures, while others may get $50,000 to update and legalize an existing dwelling.

The program was introduced last year as part of Los Angeles County’s set of 47 strategies to solve homelessness. The office of Regional Planning will work with several departments countywide with an allocated $550,000 in part to be used to offer subsidies.

Unlike a guest house, second dwellings include kitchens.

The program also will streamline the permitting process and provide technical assistance to homeowners within the county’s unincorporated areas, who would qualify, officials said.

Details of who would be housed and the selection process are still under discussion, said supervising regional planner Connie Chung on Monday. Funding allows for two to three new second dwellings, and for the remodeling of two to three existing ones, she added.
